well, that was...interesting. once I get over 300 I always mentally am squishy; for some reason it's at that arbitrary point that I realize holy shit there's a lot of weight on my shoulders. so last night i'm doing the sets and the first two went ok. last one started out ok but as the reps went on the bar started inching lower, and just as I was descending on the 5th rep it broke loose. Having 305lbs falling down my back with my arms still attached to it was less than pleasant. I just fell with it into the pins, and thank god for pins or it might have ripped my arms off. called it quits as my elbows and shoulders felt stressed; I was afraid that they'd really hurt this morning but evidently the combination of many pints of Blue Moon and a sausage and pepperoni pie at Brothers is quite therapeutic. first time I've had a fail like that in a long time.
